Not only do we come in many shades of black our hair comes in many textures. I've been going natural for about 8 years however my hair is not curly enough for the curly style and not straight enough for the straight styles. I have had difficulty finding a salon in Detroit that can offer a variety of styles for natural hair. I haven't decided to go with twists or sister locs but I would love something versitle for the corporate world. Thanks for standing up for our natural hair. On the other hand, I hate when its referred to as "nappy". My grandfather, who was part white,always said that 'nappy' is a white/racist word. I always say natural when referring to our virgin hair.
